Chi non fa merenda in compagnia... peccato!
E’ davvero un peccato non fare la merenda tutti insieme, pane e marmellata, like when we were kids.
In this case, the bread and snack would "jam Persimmons," a delight that I wanted to share, and for once, honoring the promise that in time I had done in the post about the "sweet braids.
The Caco is a fruit that I love so much, perhaps because of the legacy of my former life, when I did a lot of sport ( at a competitive level, good times ... ) and Andrea, my coach advised me to eat one before the gym. I am very
energy ( but very much as their content sugar up to 16-18% by making about 65 kilocalories per 100 grams ), but, apart from that little detail , contain a lot of vitamin A, vitamin C, beta carotene, potassium and more.
So if you are not a sport but you're just tired mentally, "here, the Caco is perfect for you because it helps the nervous system and helps purify the liver.
But the thing I like most is its botanical name: Diospiro or Diospero .
Dios, which derives from the greek and it means God , and that means pyros wheat .
a kind of breadfruit, in fact, sent by the gods or the gods ... it does not matter to me ... the correct translation is an alchemical poetry.
And this was understood, miciapallina, the Caco you like, but the jam?
A is the jam!
Everything comes from a tribute that my friend greengrocer, at the very end of last year, did the Cattery, three of those big boxes of this fruit.
Small, fragrant, amber Khaki, they would undoubtedly spoiled fino alla riapertura, e “intuendo” la mia passione ( parliamo sempre di ricette… )… il passo è breve ed il Caco è tratto!
Ora che chili e chili di Cachi si aggiravano speranzosi alla Gatteria, bisognava trovare una ricetta…. e dopo aver girovagato in lungo e in largo sul web, l’ispirazione ci è arrivata “ qui ”!
La Confettura di Un Tocco di Zenzero era quella fra tutte con meno zucchero, e siccome a seguire le orme di Sandra non ci si può che trovare bene, mi sono lanciata… naturalmente con qualche modifica!
The Tanta Persimmon Jam
(The box biopsy is not included in the recipe, that's my cat!)
The recipe is very simple proposal, Sandra advised us not to move the pulp, and we have not done blindly following everything!
Removed the cuticle, extracted the pulp with a little rubbing his holy hands, freed the seeds from their bags, we transferred all in a beautiful pot and the other edges ( bought the same for the invasion of oranges with jam and jelly ), added sugar and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally.
And please, laugh!
Because this is a magical thing, sugar and fruit turns into something warm and velvety, is intended to bring pleasure, so ... laughing, singing, pinch your partner (or partner ), play with cats because this is NOT a job and in this jam, while the chemistry changes in the material pot of gold, you also infondeteci your love!
Spread Love!
And while laughing, slowly, the foam clears ... and then we did our small change!
both vary a little, because it was taaaaanta fruit pulp in a pot, we added two tablespoons of orange powder ( thanks Alex! ) and a short Grappa, in another saucepan the zest and the juice of two lemons beautiful bio, in another pot a few pieces of chopped ginger and a little vanilla, then, we played with the flavors!
But be careful when you add the brandy ( or other liquor) because the brew "up" now and you can boil sketches ( and burn! Or burn! I say this from experience! ) .
passed half an hour you do the test plate, that is, pour a few drops on a cold saucer and try to tilt it ... if you drop it congeals and will not slip off the jam is ready.
As you can see from the picture above .... for us the proof dish they made the tiles of the kitchen!
contentaaaa idea how I was to clean up!
With this magnificent " operation Caco " I finally emptied the cattery from all glass jars and barattoloni Keep carefully. There
I just can not throw a glass jar, but then eventually found everywhere, under the bed in the cupboard under the stairs, in the middle of the jelly cats! ... It can not be more!
now, the preservation of homemade jams should not be taken seriously.
should always be well sterilized jars ( and even seals and lids ) to prevent recurrence and microorganisms in our jam making them inedible, or even worse, toxic.
Then, after you wash them very well ( hot dish) and passed to the microwave to make hot, I pour the hot jam yet to fill the barter up to half an inch from the edge, close, back on the jar a clean cloth and leave to cool.
Cooling jam creates a vacuum ( is also seen from the cap ) and must be evacuated.
Yes, I agree, are bigoted in this one, much.
But, you see how cute is the vacuum that forms in the jars?
Here!
many pounds of flesh we become?
13 kilos and 850 grams persimmon pulp clean!
jam How good is this here?
Good good very good!
To test, buzz The Cattery!
There advances some jar !
nasinasi sugar
ps stung by compulsive curiosity and accortami of my ignorance, I went to peek into the difference between jam and marmalade. For me they are all jam. ... but no!
Since 1982, through an EU directive , only products derived from citrus fruit may be sold in the European Union under the name of "jam", while all other preparations are called jam.
solved the mystery, I go back to the eating a slice of bread and "jam" with many greetings to European Community.
